Thanks, we will need testing on different environments going forward. What version of Windows were you using? |
Windows 8.1. I can also test on Windows 10 if you think that would be helpful |
Do you happen to have records of which errors you encountered and needed to solve with the more verbose paths? This will also help for SEO |
I don't have a list of the errors right now but I could come up with one because I remember most of them. |
That would be helpful, just write a comment with the problems you encountered and I'll merge the pull request |
commit made a mistake in the array initializing arg_set_donation_mode. Setting the fourth parameter to false requires we set the third parameter equal to "false". Otherwise, the currency core crashes on start-up because a value of "" is used to set the donation method, which is invalid.

Nice catch!
In the future, open a separate pull request for separate issues, if it doesn't impact the merge |
That's my bad, sorry. I am still new to using Github. I'll get it figured out |
Some problems I occurred while trying to build Boolberry from source on a Windows 8:
|
Do you have an include folder after installing this binary boost? mine doesn't come with an include folder |
No, I do not have an include folder inside the boost folder. In the main boost director I have the following folders: boost, doc, lib, libs, more, status, tools |
I don't see how you got this to compile. I just get
Maybe it's because I used version 1.57.0 |
Uninstall Boost 1.57 and try 1.56 I had inadvertently tried other combinations as well Visual Studio 2013, Boost 1.56. On OSX, there is no Visual Studio, but I was able to build with the command line. I never got the linking working in Xcode working, so that slowed me down. On two Windows VPSs I've been able to build it also with the command line. While using a Visual Studio version to at least help me browse through the code and dependencies easily. I haven't successfully compiled or debugged with an IDE at all yet. |
Yeah, still problems. I think we might have downloaded different things. it sees the boost version, but doesn't find static libraries for boost_system, boost_filesystem, boost_thread, boost_date_time, boost_chrono, boost_regex, boost... etc. |
To confirm what was said above, yes you need to use Boost 1.56 with Visual Studio 2013. Using different boost versions made it impossible for me to compile. I zipped up my Boost 1.56 folder for you. I know it's large but download it and compare it against yours: www.dropbox.com/s/bbltqd68xeawqwy/boost_1_56_0.zip |
does the same thing using yours. |
I remember having the same error as you. I am racking my brain trying to remember how I fixed it. |
I'm trying to run bootstrap.bat and .\b2 |
I spent many hours trying to figure out how to build Boolberry from source with no errors. I finally figured it out, and so I think sharing the detailed steps of how I did it will benefit others moving forward.
